With reports that Trump will end to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, we need to take action TODAY.

1) Join our rally at the Colorado Capitol Building in Support of DACA

DACAmented speakers with Gov. John Hickenlooper & CO House of Rep. Speaker Cristanta Durán will hold a press conference and rally to support DACA in the morning. Trump will make his announcement later in the afternoon and we need to show our DACAmented youth we are #WithDreamers.

2) Call Your Elected Official TODAY to help pass the 2017 Dream Act and to #DefendDACA.

You could say something like:

I am calling on (insert legislator’s name) to work with Congress to enact the bipartisan Dream Act of 2017 that provides permanent protection for Dreamers.

AND

I also urge President Trump to preserve the popular and successful Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which provides important protections and opportunities for nearly 800,000 Dreamers.

Colorado public officials are known for their commitment to service, integrity, teamwork, respect, and courage when representing the people of Colorado, which is why it is more important than ever for Colorado Attorney General Cynthia Coffman to defend Colorado families and our economy by defending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program in court now that the potential end to the program is in sight on Sept 5th.

5) With your support here’s what we can do to protect immigrant families in Colorado

Provide immigration relief to those who qualify for citizenship and other adjustment of status processes, including defending DACA recipients; meanwhile work to expand immigration legal assistance statewide.

Pass legislation to defend Sheriffs who refuse to honor ICE detainers, ending unjust detentions and deportations. CIRC will work with local Police, Mayors and Counties to come out in defense of sanctuary policies.

Expand and fix the state driver’s licenses program for the undocumented to increase the number of individuals who can access and benefit from this relief across Colorado.

Prepare communities through Know Your Rights trainings to protect and defend themselves if faced with deportation.
